WHEN A RAVENOUS PEACOCK BASS
explodes on your Amazon Ripper and tears off towards
the tangled brush pile at the far end of the flat calm
tree lined lagoon, you will learn immediately never ever
use your thumb on the violently spinning spool.
These ain't no sissy largemouths...
These are the Fishasourus Rex of the Brazilian jungles.
These knob headed, bright colored, red eyed devils will
strip your drags, rip the wires and hooks from your
favorite lures, shatter the best of rods and make
you'r body ache from the battle.
The following morning at first light you will go back, with your eyes glaring as if in a voodo trance, unable to resist .
You will cast out your braided line attached to a hook filled lure once again hoping to call forth another red eyed monster from the still black acidic water the "Tucunare" call home.
You are HOOKED........
